Default Great Experience

Everyone's getting the message...
While im not a Blu-ray Geek or Know it All guy i like to share my experience in 1 day at a shopping mall

After 20 min. searching for parking finally enter thru Sears. Check out all Neck Ties for a Christmas Shirt present i got, Smell all good perfumes and passing by i saw all the TV dept. with the 103" Panasonic Playing Blu-ray (Da Vinci Code) even while they have also HD-DVD software they keep playing Blu titles...

After getting out, the first store i happen to pass right next to its Suncoast Movies (next to them) and from the outside they have 1 banner for HD and 1 for Blu ray outside (dont enter too expensive)

So i keep on walking and after the Vision Center is a Surfing Store with a Blu-ray (happens to be Penguins Surfs up) i stood there and remembered my younger days at the beach...

Kept on walking and after a jewerlry store (that dont play nothing) theres EBWORLD selling 360's and PS3's (showing Blu-ray Spiderman 3 that comes with it) but everyone's stays seeing the Nintendo Wii pretty cool (dont enter cause if i have money i always come out with something)

After seeing beautifull girls in a couple of womens stores theres the Candy Store playing Upconverted (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) and picked up some Gummy bears for the road and right next to it, its Kaybee toy store with PS3 showing Cars in one side and Spiderman 3 on the other side (below are serious amount of Spidey toys and Cars stuff) along with Tinkerbell

Im thinking there's might be a plot... but walking by and seeing the Vacation People and the Egyptian Goddess booths trying to sell me their offers theres a Spy Store with Samsung 26" (believe they got it in a trade or something) showing Casino Royale (what better than Bond) Got a cool keychain for my wife...

two booths ahead is my cell phone company (paid) and in front of it theres a Gothic Store who i never will enter but outside you can hear theyre playing Harry Potter (think theyre Warner)

after so many people with booths offering dont know what, theres Gamestop (same as EBWORLD) but with a Sony 70" projector showing PS3's future coming's (saw Gran Turismo Prologue) and will get it for sure...

A couple of Sneakers store (foot locker) (footaction) and High Speed Internet Booths theres the Bose Store with Standard DVD's (hoping they upgrade to HD) and theres the Sony Store (love it)
with the New XBR's showing (what else...Blu) Beyonce's concert and in the other window a huge VAIO with built it Blu-ray showing 50 first dates, when i entered the store i saw BDS-300 for sale and got to see the Home theather Amplifiers (all with Dolby TrueHD where gone)... got out mad...

next was the Puma store with Strange looking people inside as if i was gonna rob them or something and when i got out in front theres this place called specs music and when i checked in to see accesories for my iPod i didnt knew they also sell Blu and HD but with the same price tickets as Suncoast Movies (think theyre the same)

Finally i went to the Apple Store to grab a $15 Apple Store Card (to download a couple of TV Shows for the iPod) and they were showing in a 30" apple Monitor Ratatouille for download (i got it in Blu)

i decided to take a rest in Borders and have a milk shake and they have lots of regular DVD's with HD and Blu all locked up and all of a sudden i heard a couple of young teenagers talking about the Bourne Ultimatum and the other one about Die Hard 4.0 (wish the Bourne where on Blu) and i concluded it happened to be a great day for walking and enjoying HD, so i got in the car went to the next Walmart like 15 minutes from there and got Harry Potter Order of the Phoenix in Blu... By all this im saying i think we dont need experts analyzing the format war its just happens everyday to turn things into Blu...

Thank you for reading a great experience

I love Blu Ray and I love Great Experiences but I can' believe I wasted my time reading that way to long response.

I'm surprised there wasn't Blu-ray in your food court?
Also the Da Vinci Code isn't on Blu-Ray.
